Stage Up! Idol Agency Privacy Policy
Effective October 25, 2026
Dongwook Kim and Soyoung Kim (“we”) run the game Stage Up! Idol Agency (the app and https://stageup.paistra.com, the “game”). This policy explains how personal information is handled.
1. Information we collect
We do not collect your personal information or store it on any server. There is no sign-up or login.
Your save file and your language, sound and display settings are stored only on your device and are never sent to us. They are deleted when you remove the app or clear the site data in your browser. Backup codes and backup files are made and kept by you.
2. Information Google processes to show ads
The game uses Google’s ad services to show ads: Google AdMob in the app and Google AdSense on the web.
Google may collect device and app information, IP address, cookies, ad views and clicks, and advertising identifiers (the Android advertising ID, or the iOS advertising identifier if you allow it) to serve ads, measure ad performance and prevent fraud. This information is handled under Google’s Privacy Policy (https://policies.google.com/privacy) and may be transferred to and stored by Google LLC in the United States.
To turn off personalized ads:
- Android: Settings, Google, Ads, then delete the advertising ID
- iPhone: Settings, Privacy and Security, Tracking, then turn tracking off for the app
- Web: https://adssettings.google.com
3. Anonymous gameplay statistics and error reports
To fix and improve the game, we collect the following. We do not store information that identifies you, such as your name, email or IP address.
- A random number created on your device for each install (not linked to any account or advertising identifier)
- Where the game runs (web, Android or iPhone), the game version and language
- Gameplay events such as starting a game, tutorial steps, in-game year, agency rank, debuts and whether an ad was watched
- Error details when something goes wrong
This information is stored on Cloudflare servers in the United States, and gameplay events and error reports are deleted after 180 days. Removing the app or clearing site data also removes the random number.
The web version (https://stageup.paistra.com) also uses Cloudflare Web Analytics to count visits. It does not use cookies and does not collect information that identifies you.
4. Children
The game is not directed at children under 14, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 14.
5. Your rights
Because we do not keep information that identifies you, there is no personal information for us to show or delete. Anonymous gameplay statistics cannot be linked back to you, so they cannot be deleted one by one, but they are removed automatically after 180 days. You can erase your game data at any time by removing the app or clearing site data. You can manage ad information processed by Google using the steps in section 2 or in your Google account settings.
6. Changes
If this policy changes, we will post the new version on this page with its effective date.
